Called sea-sparkle for its bioluminescence. It's a heterotrophic (no photosynthesis) athecate (no shell) <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/dinoflagellate" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dinoflagellate</span></a> that feeds by phagotrophy (engulfing). Quite large for a single-celled organism, up to 2 mm in diameter. Though not algae it can form colorful orange harmful blooms by releasing ammonium toxic to invertebrate and fish gills. <a href="https://ecoevo.social/tags/HABs" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HABs</span></a><br>Also available as a giant microbe plush.<br><a href="https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.king5.com/amp/article/tech/science/environment/water-orange-noctiluca-bloom-west-seattle/281-a137d138-cce3-4537-a8d5-8da0e1a04014" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">google.com/amp/s/www.king5.com</span><span class="invisible">/amp/article/tech/science/environment/water-orange-noctiluca-bloom-west-seattle/281-a137d138-cce3-4537-a8d5-8da0e1a04014</span></a></p>
